Meursault Les Vignes Blanches 2022 Domaine Clos de la Chapelle

Professional reviews

Vinous (94)

The 2022 Meursault Vignes Blanches is a new purchase for the Domaine on deeper soils on the Volnay side towards Santenots. The vines were planted in 1948, with a small portion re-grafted this year. The well-defined bouquet has touches of chalk infusing the citrus fruit. Tightly-coiled, but this has a lot to give down the line. The vibrant and tensile palate is lively and full of energy. Harmonious with a brisk and linear finish, this is a Village Cru punching at Premier Cru level.

Burghound (90)

Pungent aromas of firm reduction and wood render the nose tough to evaluate. Much more interesting are the super-sleek, intense and fresh middleweight flavors that are slightly finer and particularly so on the chiseled, sneaky long and youthfully austere finally. This is excellent for its level and recommended.

Jasper Morris (90)

New in 2022, from old vines low on the slope. Mid yellow, softly oaky from the mix of normal oak and 450 litre barrels. The fruit starts out quite soft with a ripe plum and lemon scented fruit, then a little less marked behind. Medium length.
